In the last 12 months, which project, transaction, honor or accomplishment are you most proud of and why?
Over the summer I was elected by my peers to serve on the Commercial Real Estate Women (CREW) Network board of directors for 2015-2017. CREW Network's nearly 9,000 members represent nearly every discipline within the industry and are located in over 70 major markets across North America. CREW is dedicated to advancing the achievements of women in commercial real estate and seeks to influence the success of the commercial real estate industry by focusing on fulfilling four key initiatives: business development, leadership development, industry research and career outreach.
In addition, after a tough application process, I was accepted into a Goldman Sachs business program which helps entrepreneurs and business owners by giving them what is, in essence, an MBA in defining, forecasting and financing growth opportunities for their businesses.
